OP
Cox should bring Trump into campaign for him. That will boost Newsom's margin.

It would be great if it was a greater margin.

(23,510 posts)5. He could.
I have a sense that ~62% is approaching the ceiling in a top two race. Under the old system, the margins would get larger with some people voting for minor party candidates. I tend to think that that vote would be more likely to go to the underdog under the new top two system.
Of course, it would be great for Newsom to get more than that. I do think that even with a 20 point margin, a number of Republican congressional (and hopefully senate and assembly) seats will be won by Democrats.
